In the future, after a Third World War has decimated much of the Earth's population, a new nation known Libria rises up under the unquestioned leadership of The Father (Angus MacFadyen). Believing human emotions and their expression were to blame for the failings of past societies, The Father has decreed that all citizens must take a daily dose of Prozia II, a drug which levels out the emotional landscape, and that all forms of creative expression are against the law; violating either regulation can be punished by death. Cleric John Preston (Christian Bale) is a Grammaton, an elite law enforcement officer who tracks down and punishes "sense offenders." One day, Preston accidentally fails to take his Prozia II, and for the first time begins experiencing emotions himself. Preston becomes aware of an underground of rebels who refuse to take their medication and have embraced art and literature, and he finds himself becoming infatuated with one of their number, Mary O'Brian (Emily Watson). © 2003 Miramax Film Corp.

This movie was pretty bad. It's sort of riding The Matrix's coattails but there is something about a dystopian flick which I thoroughly enjoy. Many parts can make you laugh but it's still entertaining. I won't watch it over and over but it was still slightly good.

This slipped under the radar when it came out. One of the most entertaining and original sci-fi films of its time. It borrowed a bit from 1984, and other classic stories but with a wholly original angle. And the gun-fu stuff was awesome.

I don't use that kind of describing a movie, and I have yet to find another movie that could. This movie from start to finish, grabs you and won't let go. At first glance, I thought that this movie would be another b movie on the line with another Segal-esque production. But the production was fantastic. Visually, it was gorgeous, the storyline was fairly original (very 1984), and the action was awesome! I would describe this movie as '1984, directed by John Woo!' It was because of this movie that I knew Christian Bale would be able to pulloff The Dark Knight! This is one of my all-time favorite movies!!!
